Definitions

  • the present invention relates, in general, to an air control valve and, more particularly, to a valve that controls the supply of compressed air in a vacuum transfer system.
  • a vacuum transfer system includes a vacuum pump that is operated by compressed air supplied thereto at a high speed, and a gripper from which air is expelled by the vacuum pump.
  • the vacuum transfer system is configured such that, when a negative pressure is produced in the vacuum pump and in the gripper, which holds an object to be transferred, the object can be transferred to a predetermined desired location by a robot unit.
  • the present invention relates to a valve that executes the control of the supply of the compressed air.
  • a typical air control valve used in the vacuum transfer system is configured such that an outlet of the air control valve can be opened or closed by a piston that reciprocates in response to an on/off operation of an electronic control valve that is used to operate the air control valve.
  • part of the compressed air that has been supplied into a valve casing through an inlet passes through the electronic control valve, and pressurizes the piston placed inside a piston chamber.
  • the electronic control valve moves the piston rearward and opens the outlet.
  • the electronic control valve moves the piston forward and closes the outlet.
  • valve construction that is configured to operate both the electronic control valve and the air control valve so as to realize the control of the supply of compressed air is not suitable for simple and repeated transfer work. That is, this valve construction should frequently repeat the on/off operation, so the valve construction consumes an excessive amount of electricity, reduces the expected life span of elements, and may cause malfunction. When the turned on state of the valve is continued in an effort to solve the problems, it is almost impossible to efficiently execute transfer work, and an excessive amount of energy may be wasted.
  • the air control valve is configured to be operated by the on/off operation of the electronic control valve. Therefore, when the electronic control valve, as an example, fails to be operated normally, the air control valve may not control the operation of the vacuum transfer system.
  • the air control valve should be configured to be closed when the level of vacuum pressure reaches a predetermined sufficient level.
  • the air control valve having the above-mentioned construction is operated in response to an electric signal, so the operational precision of the air control valve is reduced.
  • WO 2005/012775 A1 discloses a valve comprising a housing having first and second open ends, and a passageway extending between the ends.
  • DE 203 07 512 U1 discloses a valve for mining equipment moving by waterpower.
  • WO 2010/103408 A2 discloses a control valve which can be made pressure independent by enclosing in a common valve body in line with and in-line differential controller.
  • JPH03163284 A discloses a two stage control valve with two connection parts and having corresponding hollow pistons.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide an air control valve that is configured such that it can be controlled by a two-stage control method, in which the two stages of the control method are operated in response to an electric signal and a pneumatic signal, respectively, so the air control valve of the present invention can realize improved operational stability; and improved energy efficiency and improved operational precision.
  • the air control valve of the present invention includes:
  • the housing may be formed by a combination of a first body having the inlet with a second body having the outlet in such a way that the first and second bodies face each other.
  • the stopper may be formed by a combination of a first stopper inserted into the first body with a second stopper inserted into the second body in such a way that the first and second stoppers face each other.
  • the air control valve according to the present invention is a valve that is configured to be operated through the two-stage control process using an electric signal and a pneumatic signal.
  • the air control valve of this invention will be configured such that the control of the compressed air can be determined by a level of vacuum pressure that is produced in the vacuum pump or in the air exhaust chamber. Accordingly, unlike the prior art air control valve operated in response to an electric signal, the air control valve of the present invention is advantageous in that it can realize improved operational stability, improved energy efficiency and improved operational precision.
  • FIGS. 2 to 5 reference numeral 10 denotes an air control valve according to the present invention.
  • the air control valve 100 of the present invention includes a main body 10, a first control part 20 and a second control part 30.
  • the main body 10 comprises a hollow cylindrical housing 11, a stopper 12 that is arranged inside the housing 11, and an electronic control valve 13 that is arranged outside the housing 11.
  • the housing 11 is provided with a compressed air passage channel 16 therein, wherein the compressed air passage channel 16 communicates both with an inlet 14 that is formed in a first end of the housing 11 and with an outlet 15 that is formed in a second end of the housing 11.
  • the stopper 12 is fitted in the middle portion of the passage channel 16. Due to the stopper 12, the passage channel 16 is divided into left and right parts that are left and right passage channels 16a and 16b, with a narrow path 17 formed between the left and right passage channels 16a and 16b.
  • the housing 11 is formed by a combination of a first body 11a and a second body 11b which face with each other.
  • the first body 11a has the inlet 14 formed in the first end of the housing 11
  • the second body 11b has the outlet 15 formed in the second end of the housing 11.
  • the housing 11 may be formed as a single body.
  • the passage channel 16 of the integrated single housing 11 is too long, so it is very difficult to machine the passage channel 16 in the integrated single housing 11 and substandard quality products may be easily produced.
  • the housing 11 of the present embodiment is produced as two separate parts.
  • the present invention is advantageous in that it can easily produce the housing 11, and can reduce the size and weight of the housing 11.
  • the stopper 12 is formed by a combination of a first stopper 12a with a second stopper 12b in such a way that the two stoppers 12a and 12b face each other.
  • the first stopper 12a is inserted into the first body 11a
  • the second stopper 12b is inserted into the second body 11b.
  • the design of the separated structure of the stopper 12 is intended to solve the problems that may be experienced in the machining of the stopper when the stopper is formed as a single body.
  • the design is also intended to solve the difficulty that may be experienced when forming and assembling the stopper 12, the first control part 20 and the second control part 30 in the housing 11.
  • the electronic control valve 13 is a typical electronic control valve that is mounted to the external surface of the housing 11, and forms part of fluid line of the first control part 20, and controls the on/off operation of the fluid line.
  • the first control part 20 includes a hollow first piston 21 that is movably placed in the passage channel 16 of the housing 11, and a first fluid line 22 that is formed in the first control part 20 so as to actuate the first piston 21.
  • the first piston 21 is placed in the left passage channel 16a at a location between the inlet 14 and the first stopper 12a, and moves to the left and right, thereby closing and opening the path 17.
  • the first piston 21 should be free from disturbing the flow of compressed air, so the first piston 21 is configured as a hollow piston, particularly, a hollow cylindrical piston.
  • the path 17 that functions to make the left and right passage channels 16a and 16b be operated in conjunction with each other is formed at a location to the edge of the stopper 12.
  • the path 17 is configured such that, when the first piston 21 is moved and the end of the piston 21 comes into contact with the stopper 12, the path 17 becomes sealed.
  • the first fluid line 22 extends through the wall of the first body 11a of the housing 11 at a location to the side of the inlet 14 of the passage channel 16, and passes through the electronic control valve 13, and then extends leftward and rightward at a location outside the first piston 21.
  • the above directional terms “leftward” and “rightward” mean the opposite moving directions of the first piston 21.
  • a protrusion 23 is formed on the external surface of the first piston 21, and the directions of leftward and rightward in the present embodiment are determined based on the protrusion 23.
  • the second control part 30 includes a hollow second piston 31 that is movably placed in the passage channel 16 of the housing 11, and a second fluid line 32 that is formed in the second control part 30 so as to actuate the second piston 31. Described in detail, the second piston 31 is placed in the right passage channel 16b at a location between the outlet 15 and the second stopper 12b, and moves to the left and right, thereby opening and closing the outlet 15.
  • the second piston 31 is closed at one end 33 thereof, with a through hole 34 formed through the sidewall of the closed end 33 such that the through hole 34 communicates with the outlet 15 via a support step 35 provided at a location to the outlet 15.
  • the second piston 31 is configured such that, when the second piston 31 is moved so that the closed end 33 thereof comes into contact with the outlet 15, the piston 31 closes the outlet 15.
  • reference numeral 36 denotes a spring that is concentrically placed around the external surface of the second piston 31 and biases the second piston 31 in a direction toward the outlet 15.
  • the second fluid line 32 extends through the wall of the second body 11b of the housing 11 at a location to the outlet 15 of the passage channel 16, wherein the outlet 15 communicates with the through hole 34.
  • the second fluid line 32 passes through a pneumatic control valve 40, and then extends to the left at a location outside the second piston 31.
  • a protrusion 37 is formed on the external surface of the second piston 31, and the direction of leftward in this embodiment is determined based on the protrusion 37. In a normal state, the first end of the spring 36 elastically biases the protrusion 37, so the closed end 33 of the second piston 31 comes into contact with the outlet 15.
  • the air control valve 100 of the present invention having the above-mentioned construction can be used in a vacuum transfer system, and controls the supply of compressed air to the vacuum pump, thereby allowing or stopping the supply of compressed air to the vacuum pump.
  • the compressed air discharged from the through hole 34 rushes into and is resisted by the support step 35, thereby flowing backward.
  • the compressed air that flows backward pushes the second piston 31 to the left with a pressure higher than the biasing force of the spring 36, thereby moving the piston 31 to the left.
  • This leftward movement of the piston 31 opens the outlet 15, so the compressed air that has been supplied into the inlet 14 sequentially passes through the left passage channel 16a, the path 17, the right passage channel 16b, the through hole 34 and the outlet 15, and is then supplied to the vacuum pump.
  • the pneumatic control valve 40 is opened by the vacuum pressure.
  • compressed air that has passed through the through hole 34 passes through the second fluid line 32, and pressurizes the second piston 31 from the left, thus moving the second piston 31 to the right. Due to this operation, the end 33 of the second piston 31 comes into contact with the end having the outlet 15, so that the outlet 15 is closed.
  • the electronic control valve 13 is in a turned on state, the supply of compressed air is stopped.
  • both the pneumatic control valve 40 and the second fluid line 32 are closed, so the air control valve is returned to the state shown in FIG. 3 .
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate an operation in which compressed air is supplied and blocked in a state in which the electronic control valve 13 is in a turned on state.
  • compressed air that has been supplied into the inlet 14 passes through the first fluid line 22 and pressurizes the first piston 21 from the left, thus moving the first piston 21 to the right, as shown in FIG. 2 .
  • This operation closes the path 17, and blocks the supply of compressed air.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates an example of the pneumatic control valve 40 used in the present embodiment.
  • the pneumatic control valve 40 includes a diaphragm 42 that is elastically held in the casing 41 and moves vertically upward and downward by the vacuum pressure, a stem 43 the first end of which is combined with the diaphragm 42 and the second end of which extends downward, and a part 44 provided with an air channel 45 that is opened and closed by the stem 43 moving vertically upward and downward in response to movement of the diaphragm 42.
  • the air channel 45 forms a part of the second fluid line 32.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the state in which the stem 42 closes the air channel 44 by the spring force.
  • compressed air is continuously supplied into the vacuum pump as described above.
  • the diaphragm 42 and the stem 43 are moved upward by the vacuum pressure, thus opening both the air channel 44 and the second fluid line 32.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates the state in which both the air channel 44 and the second fluid line 32 are opened. In the above state, the supply of compressed air is stopped as described above.
  • the pneumatic control valve 40 may be preferably used in the present invention. However, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specified construction of the pneumatic control valve, but the construction of the pneumatic control valve may be freely and variously designed in another embodiment.
  • compressed air is processed through the two-stage control process that is executed in the first control part 20 and in the second control part 30, wherein the first stage control is executed by an electric signal and the second stage control is executed by a pneumatic signal. Accordingly, the present invention can realize improved operational stability, improved operational precision and improved energy efficiency of the air control valve.
